Answer:

B) is downward

Explanation:

The acceleration is always downward, because it is the gravitational acceleration.

When the ball is going up the acceleration is opposing the movement, and when the ball is going down the velocity has the same direction as the acceleration

A horse walks along a straight path. it travels 3 in one second, 4 m in the next second, and 5 m in the third second. describe t
Temka [501]

Answer: The horse is moving with a uniform acceleration

Explanation:

According to the described situation, we are dealing with a <u>constant acceleration</u> (also called <u>uniform acceleration</u>), since the horse's velocity is changingn by a constant rate.

Let's prove it:

Firstly we are told the horse follows a straight path. In addition we are given its velocity:

3 m/s, then 4 m/s and 5 m/s

Since acceleration a is defined as the change of velocity in time we can calculate it:

a\frac{4 m/s-3 m/s}{1 s}=1m/s^{2} This is the horse's constant acceleration

The answer to the question would be Refraction.

as we know the two possible answers are refraction and reflection. The questions shows a decrease in speed thus being refraction as a ray in a reflection would not lose its speed. Hope this helps!
